A Detroit police officer who responded to a 911 call regarding domestic violence has been arrested and charged with sexual assault against the woman who made the call, according to MyFoxDetroit.
Officer Deon Nunlee, 40, was arraigned Friday on three counts of second-degree criminal sexual conduct, one count of assault with intent to penetrate, and one count of misconduct while on duty.
On October 30, 2013, Nunlee and his partner were dispatched to the home of a woman who called 911 saying her boyfriend had assaulted her.
While Nunlee’s partner stayed with the boyfriend, the officer took the woman upstairs where the woman claims he sexually assaulted her, The woman later told investigators that Nunlee told her that he would be returning the next morning at 7 a.m.
After the officers left the house the woman told two friends about the incident. She then reported it to the police the next day at which time a rape exam was conducted.
Detroit Receiving Hospital, which examined the woman, forwarded the rape kit to the Michigan State Police Crime Lab.
According to police sources, Nunlee denied the woman’s claim, but he was arrested this week when a positive DNA test came back.
Nunlee, a Detroit police officer since 2008, has been on desk duty since Oct. 30, said Detroit Police Commander Johnny Thomas.
A cruise ship worker with murderous intent broke into a passenger’s room then raped, beat and strangled her before trying to throw her overboard, the FBI said.
Ketut Pujayasa, 28, admitted his evil plan to investigators after the MS Nieuw Amsterdam returned to Fort Lauderdale on Sunday, the Sun Sentinel reported.
The devilish Indonesian citizen told the FBI he attacked the 31-year-old American after he knocked on her door several times during a breakfast delivery and she dissed him, saying, “Wait a minute, son of a bitch!”
“Pujayasa stated that the passenger’s comment of ‘son of a bitch’ was offensive to himself and his parents. He was angry and upset the rest of the day,” FBI Special Agent David Nunez wrote in his report, according to the newspaper.
After stewing over the slight for a few hours, Pujayasa planned to punch the woman in the face as revenge.
Instead, and though off-duty, the plotting Pujayasa used a master key to get into the woman’s stateroom and hid on her balcony, where he fell asleep.
When he awoke, the woman was back inside and he jumped on top of her and began his terrifying attack. He smashed her with a laptop and a curling iron while he beat her. The perv then used the curling iron cord and phone cord to choke the woman and silence her screams, the Sun Sentinel reported.
The woman bit the twisted attendant’s hand “then continued to fight for her life by all means available including striking Pujayasa’s exposed genitals as well as utilizing a corkscrew in an attempt to stab him,” Pujayasa reportedly told the FBI.
Fed up with the wailing woman, Pujayasa told the feds he wanted to dump his victim off her balcony to get rid of the evidence while the boat sped through waters near Roatan, Honduras.
But another passenger pounding on the woman’s door spooked the sicko, who, still naked from the waist down, jumped from his victim’s balcony to another one before he entered another occupied room from its balcony and fled inside.
The woman, meanwhile, escaped Pujayasa’s grasp and fled for the hallway, where another passenger found her only in a tank top covered in blood.
“The passenger also noted that (the victim) had a curling iron wrapped and tangled around her neck and/or hair. He also described (her) as having black eyes and visible bruising around her neck and shoulders. (The woman), fearing death was imminent, asked the passenger to relay to her family how much she loved them,” agents wrote in their criminal complaint, according to the Sun Sentinel.
Pujayasa ended up back at his room, where he told his roommate he’d killed a passenger.
The Holland America Line cruise liner docked in Honduras on Valentine’s Day, Friday, and the badly beaten woman was flown to a South Florida hospital.
Cruise security kept Pujayasa detained until the ship docked at Port Everglades on Sunday, when he was booked at a Broward jail on charges of attempted murder and aggravated sexual abuse.
The cruise liner immediately fired the man, who is held without bond. He’d been hired in 2012 following “a careful screening that included a clean criminal history check,” the company said in a statement. “He had no performance issues and came with good references.”

This is the type of action that looks bad on a whole group of people. Yes, her daughter was shot and it is understandable that she is upset about the shooting, but why turn violent against an innocent reporter who was just informing you that the person who shot your daughter was arrested?
For this woman, the only reaction to hearing such news was to throw a rock at the camera crew, chase them down a public street with a baseball bat, then sic her pit bulls after the reporter.
The woman was eventually arrested and released on $50,000.00 bond. So now in addition to dealing with her daughter being shot, the woman is now charged with a felony assault with a dangerous weapon. Her daughter is now back home.
These people are the reason why this site has a WTF category.
Katrina Tisdale (pictured) was arrested and charged on Monday with misusing 911, when she reportedly called twice so she could get a refund from her drug dealer, reports the Smoking Gun.
When St. Petersburg, Fla., resident allegedly purchased drugs from her unnamed female drug dealer, she spent her last $50 on cocaine and marijuana only to realize that she’d be penniless until her next social security disability check arrived.
According to published reports, Tisdale tried to get her last $50 back, but was entirely unsuccessful, so she allegedly resorted to calling police to see if they could exercise some form of bully tactics to get her money back.
But when Tisdale revealed her whereabouts to the 911 dispatcher, officers arrived at her location and put cuffs on her. The 47-year-old woman was then taken to the Pinellas County jail, where she is currently being held on a $100 bond.
Meanwhile, Tisdale’s latest scrape with the law isn’t the first. She has been arrested on numerous occasions over the last few years, with six of them being cocaine possession-related.
Apparently, Tisdale has a peculiar affinity for using 911 to report incidents that could be categorized as idiotic. Case in point, in a mid-2011 conviction, she told police that she had been robbed by her drug dealer.

I have to admit, I am not like every other teenager/college student who works some part-time job at a big chain supermarket or fast food restaurant. No, those are all too boring, they all lack thrill, and are so unoriginal that I’d just blend right in with the crowd. You see when I’m not here contributing to Ezkool or playing video games, I’m out promoting for a club. There’s no polite way to say it so I just will be blunt…I promote for a “Gentlemen’s” Club. While it might not pay so well, perhaps $80-$100 a week, it has provided me with some of my most interesting nights out I’ve ever had. Take Sunday night for example as it was the oddest night I’ve had.
I’ve always loved being “different”
My night started by getting the same old flyers from my promoter, Gucci (yes like the brand), at the club I promote for. I walked into as usual looking around and once again looking completely out of my element but whatever. I asked the bouncer where my promoter is and he pointed right up the stairs and up I went. I took a seat at the bar right next to him as we just decided to chat about whatever for a little.
“Hey Gucci, Babe. You want a drink? How about you Jeremy Lin?” asked the bartender. We both passed and just went talking about business; I was supposed to hit a place called The Palace tonight and with that information I was out on my way with a bag of 300 plus flyers.
I can totally see how I look like Jeremy Lin
I got to The Palace around midnight and just went about putting flyers on cars and talking to whoever I saw walking right on by; I soon found myself in the parking lot right across from The Palace. A previous night handing out flyers taught me that promoting in front of another club is a big “no-no” and this night was no different. A police officer approached me asking what I was doing, though I’m sure he had a very good idea exactly what. Thankfully the rowdy crowd outside the door of the club got his attention as he told me to just buzz off and he quickly ran back. I can happily say that every car in that lot had a flyer from me on it by the end of the night.
I continued on just putting flyers on the cars in the area until I ran into a woman outside her house smoking.
“What are you handing out child?” She asked.
“Flyers” I responded noticing she was missing some teeth. “For a club I promote for. Did I put one on your car by accident?”
“Oh no my car’s out back. Hand me one and go about your way”. I gladly complied and just went on back to my car and on my way home.
Of course to top it all off, a visit from my town’s Police Department. Keep reading!
I was about ten minutes from home when I realized I still had a nice amount of flyers left to hand out. I’d hate to bring stuff like that home especially after I’ve busted my butt tonight so I decided to go to an apartment/condo complex near my home. It was around 1 am, I had parked my car and started walking around the area putting flyers in-car windows. A woman walking her dog approached me as I was near the end of my stroll; I gave her dog a good scratch on its head and looked at her. Oh..my..gosh the look she gave me was as if I had just committed a horrible crime in front of her and smiled. On that note I quickly finished placing the last flyers and got back into my car, next thing I know I’m greeted by two police cruisers.
“Hey there! Can you just hold up turning your car on for a second?” Asked one officer as he drove up right beside me. “I just have a few questions to ask you.”
I sunk in my chair and prayed I wasn’t in some sort of trouble. He calmly asked me as to what business I had out at that time of night to which I explained to him my job, his partner went to go check out the cars to see if my story checked out.
“Yep. It’s all legit” He told his partner. “So what club are you even promoting for?”
“Hi-Beams sir.” We had a friendly conversation about the club and even the officers past experiences there. Before they sent me on my way I asked them who had called them on me.
“Oh some woman said she saw you while she was walking her dog. She thought you were checking door handles or something.” I laughed the entire way home.
It was past 2am when I finally got to lie down in my bed from an odd but eventful night. I didn’t like having the police called on me, but it was a key part to a very interesting night.
Picture this: In your travels, you forgot your ipad on the plane, never to be seen again. A month or so later, you began getting some strange pictures on your iphone. The pictures, it turns out, are coming from your missing ipad that is set up to post all pictures to your icloud account.
That scenario is being played out right now in the life of Allen Engstrom who, after a trip to Phoenix, realized that his ipad was missing. About a month later, Allen started noticing some photos being posted to his icloud account and soon made the connection – the women in the photos is in possession of his ipad.
Allen posted the photos on his Facebook page, hoping that somehow, he will be able to identify the women in the pictures and get his ipad back. “All I have is her image and the power of social media to help me get my iPad back,” Allen says, so we here at EzKool figured we’ll do our part to advance technology, while at the same time, get Allen’s ipad back.
This is definitely a WTF moment. A Las Vegas woman was arrested Tuesday after authorities caught her having sex with a pit bull in her back yard, according to Metro police.
In an arrest report released Wednesday, police said they were called to a home in the 300 block of N. 16th Street, where 23-year-old Kara Vandereyk was engaging in sexual acts with the animal in full view of neighbors.
Police said the woman stood-up and greeted officers with a “Hi”.
Vandereyk appeared to be under the influence of drugs or was mentally ill, according to the report.
Police said she could not identify herself and was unable to answer questions about the current date or name of the President of the United States.
Vandereyk is quoted in the report telling officers, “I’m bipolar.” She also admitted to taking prescription medication but was not sure if she was on them at the time, police said.
Vandereyk is charged with open and gross lewdness.
The canine was taken into the custody of Animal Control.
Well, this could officially be the craziest sex story we’ve ever heard: A Brazilian woman apparently attempted to murder her husband by putting poison in her vagina and asking him to go down on her. Yes, you read that correctly.
The guy didn’t get very far before he noticed that something just didn’t smell right down there and, realizing that his wife might be in danger—since she’d put poison all up in her ladyparts, rushed her to the hospital and saved her life. (If that’s not love, then we don’t know what love is.)
There’s no word as of now regarding why the woman wanted to kill her husband—and went to these measures, at that—but news reports say that the guy does intend to press charges against her.
There’s only one thing to say about all this: WTF?
The crazies are really coming out now. Yes, President Obama was reelected by a majority of the Electoral votes and he received a majority of the popular votes. Any sane person will accept the fact that democracy worked and the best man won.
But since his win, there have been calls from various states to secede from the Union. There are also individuals calling the president the n-word and wishing assassination on him. We are now hearing of other stories where spouses are trying to kill each other.
Here’s another example of the Republican insanity that has captured the wing-nuts just because democracy worked. She is 28-year-old Holly Solomon, and she ran over her husband with her SUV because Obama won. Her argument? Her husband didn’t vote:
According to police in Gilbert, 28-year-old Holly Solomon of Mesa and her husband Daniel argued loudly in a local parking lot before Holly got in her Jeep SUV and began chasing Daniel around. She eventually managed to pin him underneath the vehicle as he was trying to run away.
Daniel sustained life-threatening injuries and was rushed to Scottsdale Healthcare Osborn Medical Center where he remains in critical condition.
“According to Daniel, Holly believed her family was going to face hardship as a result of President Obama’s re-election,” Gilbert police Sergeant Jesse Sanger said in a statement.
Who would have thought democracy was such a bad thing?
The freaks are really coming out now…!
Investigators today arrested a Southern Nevada woman suspected of trying to vote twice this week at two different polling locations.
Roxanne Rubin was taken into custody as she arrived for work at the Riviera hotel-casino, investigators said. Rubin, 56, is a registered Republican who lives in Henderson, according to the Clark County Registrar.
Rubin allegedly cast a vote Monday at the Anthem Community Center in Henderson. Later that day, she tried to vote a second time at an early voting location on Eastern Avenue, investigators said.
When Rubin arrived at the second location, a poll worker conducted a routine database check and found Rubin had already voted. When confronted by the poll worker, Rubin denied having voted and claimed the database used by the poll worker was wrong.
Poll workers at the Eastern Avenue location blocked Rubin from voting and notified the county registrar’s office, who forwarded the complaint to the Nevada secretary of state.
